    The thing I hate about lidl and aldi is that you often have to stand in the queue again to get your money back. Annoying.

    Really!
    I wouldn't know. I've never set foot in a waitrose....
    (I'm not even joking)

    In tesco etc they have a customer desk where you can get your refund and you don't get glared at for messing up the cashier's scan rate.

    i was charged £4.99 last year for a pack of kiwi fruits turns out they put in the code for a foot stool by mistake, got it sorted before I paid mind you as I only had about 3 things and knew what I expected to pay.

    Just looked at the receipt from yesterdays shop at Lidl and noticed they have charged me £12.48 for 32 bars of white chocolate. I bought one and it should have been 39p :(
    I usually check my receipts in store but was in a rush yesterday...is there anything I can do? We've eaten half the bar of expensive chocolate and it was nice but not worth £12.48!

    I can't believe that someone wouldn't notice twelve quid extra on the bill til they got home!

    Are people that careless?
    cooeeeeeeeee :j :wave:

    Just this Sunday we bought 4 of the toilet airfreshners thinking they were 0.69p each. Realised something was pricier than we thought right after we came out. They were £2 each and DH didn't waste a second to queue up for the refund. That was a £8 refund out of £36 shopping.:eek:

    Why would you queue again. I check my receipt before packing, and if there's something wrong with it, I go right back to the till in front of the queue. Of course I let the employee finish the current customer...
